You own rental properties, that is a business.

That's true, but this is not a social media site, this is a private Flames fan site. What you are doing isn't like putting up a sign on your lawn to tell everyone about something, it's like putting up a sign on someone else's lawn without asking them.

Except that in this case the sign could get the owner of that someone else's lawn sued. That's not very considerate.

You will gladly help out, but in this case you are the one causing us to potentially get screwed over.. by what you posted we can get sued by a security company. Do I have your word that you'll supply the money to pay for a legal defense if that's the case?

I have been screwed over, a number of times. I also own rental properties, I've had one tenant steal a fridge and move out of province. I've had problems with investments gone bad, and I have used this very site to do what you are doing to raise awareness and spread the word to others involved.

However I also give to this site with a not insignificant portion of my time, and I'm part of a community, so I've earned the good will.

If you'd asked permission then it would have been better, though still it's a legal problem.
